The Civil Service Benevolent Fund is supporting Trustees’ Week 2011 by showcasing the work of its own trustees and sharing their personal stories, to raise awareness of the value of volunteering to individuals and the charities and communities they support.
Patrick Hughes, Director for London Jobcentre Plus; Graeme Henderson, Head of Health and Work at the Department of Health; Siobhan Benita, Head of the Board Secretariat at the Department of Health and Richard Hatfield, Director General, International Networks and Environment at the Department for Transport, have all very kindly taken the time to share their own experience of becoming a trustee of the Fund and explaining how their role enables them to help other civil servants who are facing difficult times in their lives.
Throughout Trustees Week, you can view a compilation of all four senior civil servants sharing their stories, as well as their separate interviews every day of the week at www.csbf.org.uk.
Trustees are the people in charge of a charity. They play a vital role, volunteering their time and working together to make important decisions about the charity's work. Trustees' Week is an annual event to showcase the great work that trustees do and highlight opportunities for people from all walks of life to get involved and make a difference. Trustees’ Week 2015 is 2–8 November, and is being officially launched at the NCVO / BWB Trustee Conference on 2 November 2015.
